Two plant workers at Fukushima poured radioactive water over themselves.

They were pulling out water where they stock material to absorb cesium from highly contaminated water.
One of them was trying to pull out the water on the top of a ladder and the other worker was supporting the ladder. Around 9:35AM on 8/31,they poured the water over themselves mistakenly. One of them was wearing rain coat but the other one was only wearing clothes with bonded material. Radioactive water got on his body directly,they detected 10 times higher as “standard”.

They assert they did not take it into the body from mouth or nose for some reason. They also assert the exposure dose was only 0.14~0.16mSv for some reason too.

(As to the acute leukemia accident,they declare it has nothing to do with the work at the plant because “incubation stage takes a few years in case of acute leukemia”.However,from my research,acute leukemia does not have incubation stage. They say the dead worker was exposed to only 0.5mSv,and died of acute leukemia but either of the info,or both of the info are very suspicious.Even in this case,even though they had the radioactive shower from the top of head , saying they were only exposed to 0.14mSv sounds un-understandable to me,at least. I will make another article about this issue soon.)

Rare view inside Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant

[What did you try to mean,camera guy ?]

All around in the Japanese forum,a lot of people have been trying to figure out what the camera guy was trying to mean.

It seems like he spells something in the air,from right to left,so we might need to read it as mirror writing,and he seems to be spelling Kanji characters.

However,nobody has ever figure it out yet.

As Tepco,and Obara Shinichi,who sneaked into the Fukushima plant say,nuc workers are supposed to have their company name and ID written on the front and back of their protecting clothes,however he does not even have anything written on the clothes.

So far,nothing has been figured out.We are looking forward to hearing something from you.

On the day when the camera guy was trying to send us some message,three nuc workers had direct exposure.
They had beta ray when they were replacing sludge filters in water purifying system.
Two workers are in 20s,one worker is in 30s. Though their counters were beeping,they ignored and kept working until they get the work done. Radiation control manager was not with them.
The worker in 30s had 1.1mSv in total,the total dose amount is not announced about the two workers in 20s.
It reveals their actual custom that they ignore the radiation counter.

(This person does not mention the dead worker for some reason.)
Another typhoon is coming for this weekend,I’m so worried about the contaminated water. Last time it came,I was staying beside the plant for the night time shift.When I looked around in the morning,the tank to stock contaminated water was floating ,I was so shocked. I’m scared about what to see in Monday morning..

The pit called trench is almost full too. If rain pours hard,it will be over flown. We must have decontaminated considerable amount of water but it didn’t decrease at all..

I wonder if water underground might be flowing into the plant somehow.. The radiation level is actually higher than we assumed,so workers are severely exposed.
Now the polluted water is pumped out with a hose pipe,but the surface of it is about 100mSv/h.. Now we manage it by inputting a lot of the workers but I’m worried about what is going on in the future..

Unfortunately,they detected cesium even from the urine of a two years old girl in Setagaya Tokyo.
Her parents were very careful about radiation control. They took her to Fukuoka,where is west Japan for three times between April to the beginning of May.They stayed in Fukuoka for two months in total.
They drank imported water,had fish/meat from Kyushu or overseas,veges from western Japan or overseas.
The girl had urinary test.
Result;Cesium 134 = 0.48Bq/kg
Cesium 137 = 0.52Bq/kg

Needless to say,little children are way more sensitive to radiation than adults.
Pray for her future.

Pro-nuc mafia is trying to re-start fast breeding reactor Monju.It’s more risky because the cooling material can explode when it leaks out.Additionally,it has never worked properly since the beginning.
There is ZERO merit to re-start and infinite risk to start it.

Here is the form.Though it’s for the former pm,Kan,please don’t care about it and sign on it.

Emeritus professor of Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology says,it’s important to check wide-ranging fish to know the scale of sea pollution,but gov tries to avoid checking those types of fish intentionally.They don’t even check Tuna,which is the most popular kind of fish for Japanese.

Pollution will be condensed in flatfish or Japanese seaperch about in September. Also,sea shells are risky too.

Even only from EU,Japan red cross collected about 4 billion EURO.However,Japan red cross abandoned distributing the money by themselves,they gave all the money to each local government.
Still billions of donated money has not reached anyone.
Especially people who spontaneously evacuated are not given the right to receive the money though they need the money most.
I personally recommend you not to use Japan red cross anymore. They are not saint or anything never.

Hayashi Fumiko ,the mayor of Yokohama asserts it’s all “harmful rumor”. She never tries to stop feeding elementary school students with cesium beef,and the students are banned to bring their own lunch box to the school.
However,in the cafeteria of the city hall,they serve beef from Australia to “serve safe food”.
The person who tweeted this recorded this conversation so I could ask this person to send me over the voice record anytime. I’m in Yokohama,I can ask them even tomorrow too.but even without asking,I can picture they do that.

She also decided to to invest 18 million yen into the new bath system to the dorm of the city officers.

Tepco admitted that there were 94 errors in their historical announcement about the radiation level of inside of the plant and around the plant.
The worst “mistake” was the radiation level of the soul under sea. They published it was only 1.5Bq/kg but it was actually 1200Bq/kg. (1/800)

Fukushima local gov is trying the huge human body test by using their own citizens. They stop people to evacuate and distribute dosemeter.
A High school student in Nihonmatsu received a dosemeter from the city government.
They will check how he will be sick based on the dose that he has been exposed to.
